Rockman and Blues to grace Kubrick toy set

mmkubrickNo, I don’t mean the director. Kubrick is a Japanese figurine, somewhat similar to a Lego figure. However, a large variety of Kubrick figures are modeled after characters from movies and so forth, including a number of limited edition figures, making them a popular collector’s item. In February of next year, Rockman and Blues will be among the collectibles.

Both the Rockman and Blues figures will stand at 7cm tall. Rockman has a additional parts so that you can make him helmetless and comes with two facial mmkubrick2expressions and a removable buster. Meanwhile, Blues has his optional Breakman face and removable shield and buster. Both figures also come with translucent Be@rbrick figures which have sprites of the respective 1-Up of each on the front. Each figure will run ¥2,940, or roughly $31.94 US by today’s conversion.

I imagine these will be fairly sought after by Rockman toy collectors!

    MUST GET. (And hope I’m not broke by then.)

  2. Proto Stryker says:

    Yeesh, that’s pricey for 7cm of death and destruction. (Though it’s terribly badass and… DO WANT.)

  3. Mega Man Kubricks? Awesome, it’s about time. I remember suggesting something like this or LEGO-ish sets to Jazwares once upon a time, shame that never came to be. But these look great, and I love the choices for different heads.

    Pity they don’t have Proto Man’s weird cowlick-pompadour thing, though. But the Break Man head is a worthy substitute.

    Too bad they’re so pricey. Maybe someone will offer them for less on import. I thought they usually came in sets, too?

    LOL, very cute and I do want them. More than anything though seeing these makes me wish someone (any toy company) would release some classic Mega Man figurines (as in non block ones). Even statues would be cool and I would pay ANY price to get them.

    Several years ago, I owned kubricks of Jason, Freddy, and Leatherface. I was actually looking for Megaman ones at the time!

  6. Everbound Venvel says:

    DO WANT! I’ll keep mine little eye on Amazon and e-bay when these are released.

  7. Windsor says:

    Whoa! A little expensive, but I’d rather own these than those bobblehead things Jazwares is coming out with if I got to pick.
